Cleveland Indians & MLB

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu May 17, 2012 12:48 pm

Indians looking to make it a 4 game win streak following a disappointing weekend in Boston.

Seattle Mariners

Ackley
Saunders
Ichiro
Seager
Smoak
Liddi
Jaso
Carp
Ryan

SP - Noesi (2-4, 6.32ERA)

Cleveland Indians

Choo
Kipnis
Cabrera
Hafner
Santana
Brantley
Amn
Kotchman
Lopez

SP - McAllister (1-1, 4.15ERA)

Noesi is even worse on the road with an unsightly 8.27ERA in four starts away from home, so I hope the Indians can tee off on this guy and give McAllister a lead with which to work. However Amn (1 at bat) and Kotchman (5 at bats) are the only Indians to have faced Noesi, and we all know how often these young kids we haven't seen before have a tendency to rape us.

Noesi's stuff looks good.

No worries, we've got the meat of our lineup this inning with Brantley and Damon after Santana. :hide:

Stop walking awful hitters

it has already stuck us once

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu May 17, 2012 2:33 pm

These at bats are shocking

by **scrambler** » Thu May 17, 2012 2:33 pm

This game has not been Jose Lopez' one shining moment to this point. Time for the Luke Donald sycophants or at least the Jason Donald sycophants to be cued up! (on the other hand JOhnny Damon's OBP is 1 so far this game!)

This is a sporting event in which one of the teams participating is called "Cleveland", there is absolutely nothing that can be too shocking that may or will occur. Scoring 8 off King Felix was not pleasing to the gods, bad things must come to even out that score. Noesi is our punishment.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu May 17, 2012 2:37 pm

Something needs to be done about the number of walks our pitchers allow. It can't go on like this if we want to contend deep into the season

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu May 17, 2012 2:42 pm

Need this win. The Marlins series is going to suck

Zambrano, Johnson and Sanchez for us to face = not nice

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu May 17, 2012 2:48 pm

Manny has given up on this game already.

This loss is ridiculous.

That tome continues to be written.

I bet the Marlins are amped to experience the C-town night life.

Indians having a competition on who can pop the ball up the highest.

by **skatingtripods** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:13 pm

This game's pissing me off more than it should. Really wanted to get this one. Figured SEA would roll over and die.

Blows my mind how our pitchers keep walking Brendan Ryan. Guy's a fucking stiff.

by **skatingtripods** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:21 pm

Choo now 4-for-41 against LHP this year.

It's because you have anger issues. We've addressed this already.

Yeah, I probably do. Jennifer would agree with you.

Look at it this way, at least we aren't allowing him to get hits.

He's just clogging the bases anyway.

His OBP% is skyrocketing! I bet we acquire him as a platoon player at the trade deadline!

by **skatingtripods** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:51 pm

I wish Johnny Damon would hit more pop ups.

Fuck off, Peeker.

by **skatingtripods** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:54 pm

JOSE LOPEZ!

by **RedDawg53** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:55 pm

J-Lo!!!!

by **Erie Warrior** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:55 pm

WOOOOOOOO!

Joe Lopez for El Presidente!

by **British_Pharaoh** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:55 pm

Lopez put a charge into that one!!!! wooo

One nail in the coffin....

Unbelievable Tribe.

There is the Jose Lopez we all know and love :nanner:

by **Jumbo** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:56 pm

Wow!!

Watching the game on gametracker and seeing "Lopez homered to left, Santana and Kotchman scored" was literally jaw dropping.

by **WiscTribeFan** » Thu May 17, 2012 3:56 pm

They're gonna have to take away Delabar's shoe laces and belt in the clubhouse.

I was about to post "I wish anybody but Jose Lopez was up". Glad I didn't.

after that point it did become Jose Lopez' one shining moment! Kotchman is just on freaking fire...up to .209 now.

Exactly. How the eff did that just happen?

by **scrambler** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:01 pm

It was only 3 years ago when Lopez had 25 home runs and 96 rbi for the Mariners. He just employed some muscle memory in the 8th there.

by **skatingtripods** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:01 pm

Come on Sipp. Do your job with these lefties.

Win it right now. No need to dick around with extras.

Anyone know the Indians' record when it goes to extra innings? From what I remember the Tribes recond isn't good. Idk

by **skatingtripods** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:12 pm

1-4.

by **TouchEmAllTime** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:14 pm

I hate Perez coming in a tie game.

Yes, he said he was during the Hafner at bat.

Thanks. Must have zoned out for a second.

by **neoleo** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:19 pm

Hafner okay? Game tracker just said injury delay after he got plunked.

by **Govbarney** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:19 pm

Hafner nailed in the arm, looked painful, Laporta better be packing his bags.

by **RedDawg53** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:20 pm

Please Manny, for the love of God, keep Chris Perez in the bullpen

by **scrambler** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:22 pm

No worries...Damon-Kotchman-Lopez coming up 2-3-4 in the 10th. That's money in the bank. I think we can even give up a run in the 10th and be ok.

Damon will go walkoff HR and I'll never hear the end of it from McPeek.

by **Gradysmanldy** » Thu May 17, 2012 4:24 pm

But guys, Bastion says that Perez has the exact same stats in a tie game vice a save situation.....so you're clearly overreacting.

(or CP tends to have crappy peripherals the last 1.2 seasons, whatever)
